S'mores Sandwich Bar Cookies

These were pretty good but I thought I'd be more wild about them. They were easy to make. The recipe is from the Hershey's website. Their website has so many wonderful recipes with common ingredients that we probably all have in our cupboards. S'mores happen to be one of my favorite things to eat, ever! I LOVE s'mores so I figured I couldn't go wrong with these. They are definitely delicious although a little messy to eat. But an actual s'more is tons messier to eat than these! One thing I really like about these is that half of the crumb/crust mixture is pressed on the bottom of the pan and the remainder is crumbled on top of the marshmallows before returning them to the oven. So you gets bites of crunchy graham cracker crust along with the gooey golden marshmallows. I made a double recipe which FILLED a 13x9 inch pan. I think I added more marshmallows than the recipe stated. All I had was the big huge marshmallows that I have been seeing in the stores this year - the ones that have been marketed just for the purpose of making s'mores. Have you seen those marshmallows? WAY bigger than your average large marshmallows. They are huge! But that is what I had on hand so I grabbed a bunch of them and cut them up into much smaller pieces. And although I had 6 Hershey bars, that wasn't enough to cover the pan so I had to add some milk chocolate chips in spots but that worked really well. These are definitely a bar cookie that you need to wait till they fully cool before cutting them. They are so gooey and sticky. I had to slice a very thin layer of each side off before cutting them into bars because they stuck so badly to the sides of my foil covered pan - even though I sprayed it well.
These are not my favorite but they are delicious. I made them for 4th of July and everyone raved about them.
